Huh.  I definitely remember it being "resource allocation is
initialization".  And I do see older uses of "allocation" rather than
"acquisition".  Perhaps it changed once RAII locking entered the picture.

Might as well keep up with the times.  ;-)

I took all but the hazptr change.  I am not necessarily opposed to that
one, but I did want to check whether you had built and tested it.

Thank you!!!

							Thanx, Paul
